The Last Show with David Cooper

Tony Five joins This Is Going Well, I Think and finally gets a Rule Britannia, kazoo-based introduction. The two tell the origin story of how they first met in San Francisco – and get derailed many times. They discuss the listeners they miss on the Canadian overnight radio show David used to host. The conversation devolves into a discussion of pornography, and it ends with the listener somehow being left stupider than when it started. Hosted on Acast.

Happy Friday! Social worker and therapist Gary Direnfeld condescends to appear on our segment Therapy Thursdays on a Friday. Gary and David discuss how they met, and then Gary shares a bit about himself. David opens up about his feelings since being off the air and without a commercial radio show. Then, ridiculous drama unfolds: Direnfeld v. Electrolux. Gary is furious with an appliance company. But is it really about his washer/dryer? David reverses roles and attempts to play therapist for Gary... with messy results. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. Learn more about your ad choices.

It's part-time sexual health and consent educator and full-time sexy clown, Samantha Bitty. She and David kick off with some banter involving Pedro Pascal and the so-called "f*ck first" Valentines. Then a thought-provoking question arises: Do you need art to experience the range of human emotion? The two play a series of increasingly stupid games, each one stupider than the next. The balance of the show takes a serious turn with the topic of sober sex and dating. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. Learn more about your ad choices.

Evolutionary biologist and science educator Dan Riskin debases himself by joining David for This Is Going Well, I Think. Dan shares strange penis tales of the Echidna, an egg-laying mammal. Then, is the Tech singularity among us? What's really scary about artificial intelligence? Conversely, what's amazing about it? David asks, "Is the era of truth over?" The conversation meanders over to quantum computers and ChatGPT. Is there a chance this might resemble intelligent discourse? Probably not. Finally, a reframe of ultimate Jewish mother wisdom: go outside without a coat, catch a cold. The show ends as confusingly as it began. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

David and stand-up comedian Natasha Vinik dive into the chaotic world of anxiety, specifically Natasha's pre-show jitters at a specific comedy venue. They explore "the vouch." After that, the topic switches to addiction, which will leave you questioning your life choices. Sharing a rocky first encounter, they recount how they crossed paths. Natasha shamelessly humble brags about a famous Canadian attendee at her show while also spilling the beans on her dating life featuring a Jason Momoa lookalike. As expected, the conversation circles back to anxiety, so brace yourself for a crash and burn. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. Learn more about your ad choices.
